keeping it simple and short:
I'm going away for a month. It's summer. My last gen ibook G4 battery is already down to half capacity.
Q1: How should i store it? in the laptop or not? some people say fully charged, some say half-charged..
Q2: any advice on how to get some of my battery life back? I used to get 3 or 4 hours. Since, say, last oktober it maxes out at an hour and a half.

2. You can’t get the battery life back, they just stop holding a charge as well over time. Apple laptop batteries seem to go out really fast (Faster than other vendors using the same batteries!), IMHO it’s because the cooling systems in Apple laptops suck, and higher temperatures are bad for battery life.
I don't believe it - I'm on my THIRD PS3, and my FIRST XBOX360. What the heck?
